Don't run over the grapefruit.

[kiya]

So I went into the bedroom to find my bathrobe; I wasn't sure where it was, so I turned the light on. teinedreugan startled awake, peered over the pillows at me, with a strange and intensely manic expression. I said, "What?"

"I'm just amazed at how very very very very very very very very many ways there are to burn *mumble mumble*."
"Burn a what?"
"A crew."
"... ... you may think that I have been a party to a conversation in which that makes sense. I wasn't."
"No, I wasn't thinking that."
"So would you please say something sequitur?"
"I was just thinking about all the different ways of getting a crew--"
"--I came in. I turned on the light. You made faces at me. I asked you what. You started talking about burning things."
"... oh."
"And when I asked you to say something that made sense, you repeated yourself."
"... oh, right."
"I said I was not a party to that conversation."
"Well, the crew. . ."
"Is this for a game? A project? A theory?"
"Game! Game. . . you have to capture a crew. For your ship. And your base. And."
"I'm going to go have my shower now and let you go back to sleep."
"That's probably a good idea. . ."
"I'm used to your transitions between being awake and asleep not being from this planet, but they are bewildering."

I am utterly convinced that he will not remember anything even remotely resembling this conversation in the morning, so it must be documented for posterity, as best as I remembered it. Hail Eris.

Must try to remember to dye my hair tomorrow. Can't do a full ritual of it, since I can't manage purity requirements right now, but fortunately I dedicated two boxes of henna last time. With a little luck I will be less sick-as-a-dog tomorrow and thus be able to accomplish something.

teinedreugan, we need to go to the grocery store tomorrow. I have an incomplete list and, uh, stuff.

"So would you please say something sequitur?"

Huh. wedgex did that last night, sort of, only he was halfway out of bed and cheerily incoherent, and quite insistent that I had woken up him and told him something.

Except that he was still asleep. :)

Oh, dear. *giggling*
I think I've been the other end of conversations like that.
Documentation is amusing; thank you. Thanks, both of you, in fact.

Actually, I do remember the conversation. I'm pretty sure I still can't make that much sense of it, though. :>

I know I've been that end of conversations before.... Entertaining on both sides. ;)

(More fun? Writing while so completely exhausted you're falling asleep. I have some of the most surreal bits and pieces from that. Like dream insanity on paper.)

My favorite sleeptalking: guy (asleep) shrugs and with a don't-come-crying-to-me-later tone of voice says, "Okay, but I'm telling you, there's a gorilla in that classroom."

Feel better!

Rob likes to talk to me in his sleep too, I get a lot of questions, but most of the time he doesn't respond. My college roommate said that I used to talk in my sleep a lot, I don't think I do it anymore.

I hope you feel better!

My college roommate sat up in bed when I came in one afternoon. I apologized for waking her up. We talked for a bit, and I went to putter at my computer. 2 minutes later. "Oh, Eeeka, I didn't hear you come in."
